Carbon Fiber Hood Louvers
Hey guys, I was just curious if anyone had these or saw them on a Z. Opinions? Depending on how much these pieces are, they might be a cheaper alternative to vented cf hoods, help with heat dissipation, and also add a nice visual touch.
The top right pic looks like its on a Z but I'd like to see a full size picture.

just found another pic. My Z is Silverstone though and I think I'd have the vents facing the opposite way as in the first pic.

To each their own. just my 2 cents.
good luck.

Well, I don't really fancy the shape of the vents that you posted, but they're a decent alternative to a CF hood that will cost you about 1K by the time it's painted and installed. Since I don't think they're all that good looking, I also would hope they have some functional purpose.

Yea I don't think I would put some goofy sticker thing on my car to make it look cool IMO you should go with the real deal maybe like a Seibon Ts Style hood. http://www.seibon.com/pdut_detail_pic.asp?ItemID=321
